I will go with the Bible which portrays Jealousy as the main cause of the murder. But then, the author is trying to make it in an easy way.

The author giving Cain a motive for killing Abel is the essence of the friction of the story.

Jealousy was the primary reason, as stated in the Bible. The retelling of that scene is not too farfetched.

Yes it was definitely portrayed correctly as it expressed the emotions and thoughts that were felt by both brothers and showed the lessons they learned from their actions

The motive for Cain killing Abel was clearly stated in the Bible. And it was out of Jealousy.
